BTW, u tease pelagic, way too much, when looking out and see all that snow here...

How are you handling the unusually cold weather? The news here is painting a very sad picture of many parts of Europe with deaths mounting every day due to freezing and inadequate shelter.

Welcome to the forum. My wife bought me this bike for my 40th surprise birthday party. I couldnt believe she did it, this was last May and shes still never rode on the back with me yet. Only because i dont feel ready for a passenger, im a newbie at riding with just around 1300+ miles under my belt.

Sisters yup she has 5, but only three are single. A total of 12 in her family. Come on over for the match making fair.

Cold here in Ireland? I never noticed. Compared with Boston I don't normally don winter coats.

I might take a spin down that way sometime, now that I can ride on the motorways

Welcome from Florida. I'm a cranky old Irish Police Chief, last name's O'Rourke and that's Irish enough :2tup: . Sounds like you've had plenty of riding experience - now get the book, take the classes and learn to do it right :lol: . I'd love to take my bike to Cork and Limerick, spend a month cruising the country lanes. A good black beer or a bottle of Jameson would suit me fine at the end of a long day in the saddle. oooh, an Irish red head with her freckles and her temper :whistle: - you're a brave man!
Ride safe.

If you're still around, I may pay a visit to your direction of the country in the new year (pending approval, but once I give enough notice in triplicate I should be ok )
